DECEMBER CALENDAR
JOINT MEETING DUDLEY GENEALOGY CLUB and BLACK TAVERN
Dec 10 at 7 PM at the Black Tavern
138 Center Road, Dudley, MA.
Coming Over – the great migration of the 1630’s.
Ed Bazinet, Chairman of the Dudley Historical Commission, will present a historical perspective on the first major migration of English settlers to New England. Weaving his genealogical research into this exciting period in the development of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, he will talk about the lives of various early settlers and bring the history to life. His goal is to stimulate interest in this important development of the early colony and will suggest resources for genealogists to explore their potential links to this period.
Why not visit the Black Tavern and enjoy a look back at the early settlers of New England? Maybe you will find a trace to your ancestors!
This program is open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
